They patted the dog down and ran the metal detector over it too. They spent almost 10 minuntes going over the dog. What a world we live when you can't even trust a dog. Surprsed it made it through security with no ticket or ID.
The dog can be trusted - it's the screeners who are too limited in their "vision" to understand that the dog's collar will alarm but the dog does not need to be patted down also. 10 minutes on a dog - what an imbecilic waste of money and time.

Come on apologists, let's hear your side.

For you entrepreneurs out there, here's a chance to make some money: invent a "security checkpoint friendly" dog collar/harness and lead.

And while you're doing that, also come up with WBI-proof underwear.
